Birmingham Six

Irish victims of a miscarriage of justice who spent nearly 17 years in British prisons convicted of an IRA terrorist bombing in Birmingham in 1974. They were released in 1991 when the Court of Appeal quashed their convictions. The methods of the police and prosecution were called into question. The highly acclaimed film In the Name of the Father (1993), directed by Jim Sheridan, was based on the case.
